I certainly have been enjoying a lot of pumpkin lately and in particular I have been enjoying transforming the pumpkin pie flavours into different dishes. When I came across the idea of a pumpkin pie white hot chocolate recently on The Luna Cafe I knew immediatly what my next pumpkin pie experiment was going to be. Not too long ago I had tried a pumpkin pie milkshake and a hot version of a pumpkin pie drink sounded perfect for the chilly weather that we have been having. This drink is pretty much as simple as making some white hot chocolate and adding the pumpkin puree and pumpkin spices and it is so worth making! The pumpkin pie white hot chocolate was excellent! It was nice and hot and the white chocolate added the perfect amount of sweetness that went really well with the pumpkin pie flavours. Lesson learned: Don't try to top a hot drink with whipped cream before photographing it as it melts pretty much right away.

White hot chocolate was my favorite drink from Dunkin Donuts for a while (until I realized it may be contributing to the fact that I gained 20+ pounds in college). A homemade version with pumpkin pie spices in it sounds amazing though. And worth every calorie.

I made it! Though, I'm a poor college student so I had to make do with the ingredients I had on hand... coconut milk instead of regular (had it for another recipe and never used it again) and a Hershey's Cookies & Cream bar instead of proper white chocolate. I also didn't have any vanilla, but a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top didn't hurt it at all :)Thanks for the great recipe! It was absolutely delicious, and so creative!

Almost a year later and I'm finding this wonderful recipe! A toasted marshmallow (homemade no doubt)would be a beautiful and slower melting addition to this creation. I always enjoy this site! Thank you!!

Kevin, I'm gaining weight just reading through your blogs! Just a quick note of thanks for all of your tasty ideas, and a quick tip for photographing something hot with whipped topping, use frozen whipped topping. I know you intended to enjoy that hot beverage so letting it cool first would not have been an option.

I made pumpkin cappuccino using pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice....excellent. I started with original cappuccino powder (according to your taste I usually use 4 heaping tsp. of powder per.10 oz. cup ),1 tsp.puree,1/4 tsp. pumpkin spice.. top with whipped cream sprinkle with pumpkin spice.
